Hope Tree is The Vine’s Adoption and Foster care ministry. Its mission is to create a church culture of awareness, service, and support for families of adoption and foster care. We want to be a congregation that is known in our community for supporting children from “hard places.”

Hope Tree Ministry is partnering with The Fort Foster Care to build a foster home on our church property and replicate this care and service model throughout Forsyth County.
Care Portal is a tool offered to churches so they can meet the needs of at-risk kids and families in our community. Families frequently need mattresses, beds, dressers, school clothes, grocery cards, or gas cards. This ministry is growing! You can sign up to be a part of The Vine's Care Portal team HERE.

Hope Tree has partnered with the Vijiji Home of Light, an orphanage in Nairobi, Kenya, for approximately 15 years. The Vine supports Vijiji with mission trips, orphan sponsorships, prayer, and financial gifts. This year our church community donated about $100,000 to Vijiji so they can build out the home's second floor. Watch for Short Term Mission trip opportunities to Kenya.
Hope Tree's Family Advocacy Ministry supports The Vine's own foster and adoption families through building Care Communities. You can help care for a foster or adoptive family by providing meals, laundry, child care, mentorships, overnight/respite care, prayer, and encouragement.
